The class of visibly pushdown languages has been recently defined as a subclass of context-free languages with desirable closure properties and tractable decision problems. We stu...
In this paper we provide an automaton-based solution to the decision problem for a large set of monadic second-order theories of deterministic tree structures. We achieve it in two...
We consider the problem of determining whether a given set S in Rn is approximately convex, i.e., if there is a convex set K ∈ Rn such that the volume of their symmetric differe...
Abstract. Conventional semantics for shared-variable concurrency suffers from the “grain of time” problem, i.e., the necessity of specifying a default level of atomicity. We pr...
In this paper we propose a taxonomy for classifying COTS business applications, i.e. products that are used in the daily functioning of all types of organizations worldwide, such a...
